Yamarin Cross 57 Bow Rider

6.6 Care instructions for the remote control
Normally, the remote control needs no other maintenance apart from greasing and
calibration during winter servicing. If the remote control becomes stiff for any reason, it
needs to be serviced immediately.
6.7 Care instructions for the steering system
The hydraulic steering does not require maintenance under normal circumstances. If the
steering starts to feel loose, there is a leak somewhere in the system. Leaks must be repaired
immediately!
WARNING! A hydraulic steering system that has a leak or trapped air in the
hoses is extremely dangerous.
6.8 Care instructions for electrical components
Electrical components such as the main power switch, other switches and connectors do not
normally need to be serviced if the boat is stored in a dry and well-ventilated place for the
winter. If, however, you wish to protect electrical components against oxidation, the best
way to do it is by spraying them every now and then with a moisture repellent antioxidant.
6.9 Minor superficial repairs
You can repair minor surface damage to the boat’s deck yourself. However, achieving a neat,
unnoticeable repair requires a considerable amount of skill:
1. Protect the area around the damage with tape.
2. Bevel the edges of the damaged area and clean with acetone.
3. If the damage is deeper than 2 mm, it is advisable to smooth it with an appropriate
polyfiller before painting.
4. Mix topcoat with 1.5-2% hardener.
5. Fill the repair with more topcoat than needed, so that its surface remains slightly
proud of the surrounding area.
6. Carefully put tape over the repair.
7. After the topcoat has hardened, remove the tape and sand the repair using 600 and
1200 paper applying water.
8. Buff using abrasive paste and wax.
The colours used on this boat are specified in the Technical specifications. One point to
consider is that a paint called gelcoat has been used in manufacturing the boat, but the
surface is always repaired with a paint called topcoat. Gelcoat paint does not harden without
a mould surface, whereas paraffin has been added to topcoat to allow it to harden.
